After an 0-3 start, the Chicago Bears have started a house cleaning this week Trades of defensive end Jared Allen and linebacker Jonathan Bostic started things on Monday night, and Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reported on Tuesday that safety Brock Vereen has been waived by the Bears.
Vereen was drafted in the fourth round (131st overall) in 2014 after starting 36 games as a safety and a cornerback during his college career at Minnesota. He played in all 16 games and made four starts for the Bears as a rookie, with 39 total tackles, a forced fumble and an interception, but Vereen was demoted this preseason and had seen little playing time over the first three games.
